Five for Friday

Almost exactly a year ago I shared this beef stroganoff, and now I seriously can’t get it out of my mind for this weekend. It’s going to be cold and rainy and sleety and snowy and this is a super cozy but easy version of the dish. Buying the ingredients today!

I gave Beck some Halloween M&Ms last week after she ate a huge veg-based dinner, and she immediately started matching and counting all the different colors and grouping them together, which basically means that she was learning, which means M&Ms are fine.

I’m thinking of doing a capsule wardrobe soon. I don’t love getting dressed or clothes shopping (kitchen and baby items and even stuff for Jay? whole ‘nother ballgame), and I feel I look the same all the time and am totally OK with that, so why not build on it? My QUESTIONS are: how do I start? I feel guilty just tossing perfectly good clothes. Donating, obviously. AND THEN, how long do I wait post-baby to do it? I want my bod to be kind of like it’s going to stay, so I’m thinking of analyzing this at about 5 months and going from there? Would LOVE thoughts on this. Also I’m also tempted to skip capsule and go straight uniform, no joke. All black and striped everything.

I won a cookbook on a holiday giveaway this week, and I never win ANYTHING. I also never buy cookbooks because, you know, the internet, so this is doubly exciting for me. Hopefully it doesn’t suck. Will report back.

HAPPY WEEKEND! It’s going to be disgusting here and Beck is turning three, so we’re having a little pizza party for her tomorrow and then I’m hoping the rest of the weekend will involve cozy food and snuggles and TV. I feel like there are a lot of good movies we should be watching from the couch at the moment. What have you seen lately?
